On May 7, 2024, the Chair of Economic Criminal Law, Compliance, and Digitalization hosted the fifth hybrid conference of the “Liechtenstein Talks on Economic Criminal Law.”

The overarching theme of this fifth “Talk” was “Exclusion of Evidence in Criminal Proceedings.” This topic is of great practical relevance and highly topical in light of the CJEU ruling on EncroChat.

Hon.-Prof. Dr. Babek Oshidari (Judge at the Supreme Court of Austria, Honorary Professor at the Paris Lodron University of Salzburg) and Dr. Christoph Coen (Senior Public Prosecutor at the German Federal Court of Justice) each addressed the topic from the Austrian and German perspectives, respectively.

As a guest of honor, the retired President of the Austrian Supreme Court, Hon.-Prof. Dr. Eckart Ratz, attended the event. Following the conference, he presented Prof. Dr. Konstantina Papathanasiou with the Salzburg Commentary on the Criminal Code.

The Chair extends its sincere thanks for the gift, the stimulating exchange, and the participation of all attendees.
